Default George Best \'Enters Final Hours\'

I'm really not that sad. He brought it all on himself. But fighting an addiction seems horribly difficult, so I guess I should have more sympathy for him. What a tragic waste.

Shame but he brought it all on himself, pissed away his career and continued in rest of his life. His son seems to be heading the same way.
